摘要:
Front and side surfaces of an image forming device are provided with a front cover and a side cover, respectively, which cover an image forming section, and which can be opened and closed. A supporting hinge of the side cover is provided along a lateral edge thereof toward the rear of the main body of the device, and the side cover opens to widely expose a lower portion of the image forming section. Further, by means of an obstructing body provided integrally with the front cover, the front and side covers are given an order of opening and closing.

摘要:
An optical scanning lens and an optical scanning and imaging system for use in an optical scanning apparatus for scanning a surface of an optical recording medium, such as a photosensitive material, for writing data thereupon, is constructed to produce a minimum beam spot diameter, in a sub-scanning direction, within a desired range, while also reducing variation in a scanning line pitch and reducing variation in beam spot diameter according to an image height for every point along a scanning surface by determining and compensating for a non-uniform distribution of refractive indices in an optical scanning lens used in the optical scanning imaging system, before designing and manufacturing the optical scanning lens.

In construction of a magnetic encoder used for detection of displacement of a mobile body, a circular magnetized pattern is formed on one longitudinal end face of a magnetic rotary spindle mechanically coupled to the mobile body, and a magnetic sensor faces the magnetized pattern with a prescribed gap. Direct formation of the magnetized pattern on the rotary spindle excludes production errors caused by the conventional coupling process and end-face magnetization assures significant compactness of the entire construction.

An optical scanning unit includes a rotatable multi-faceted mirror having a plurality of faces reflecting light flux emitted from a light source to scan a scanning area in a main scanning direction. A width of the light flux striking the rotatable multi-faceted mirror is smaller than a length of a face of the rotatable multi-faceted mirror. The entire of light flux striking the rotatable multi-faceted mirror is reflected at a first face when the light flux reflected by the rotatable multi-faceted mirror is directed to the center portion of the scanning area. A part of the light flux striking the rotatable multi-faceted mirror is reflected at the first face while the remaining of the light flux is reflected at a second face when the light flux reflected by the rotatable multi-faceted mirror is directed to a least one of the two end portions of the scanning area.

An optical scanning apparatus includes a light source; and a rotational polygon mirror having N reflecting surfaces, the rotational polygon mirror being configured to reflect a light flux emitted from the light source so that a scanning surface is scanned along a main-scanning direction with reflected from the rotational polygon mirror. A width of the light flux incident on the rotational polygon mirror in a direction corresponding to the main-scanning direction is smaller than a width of each reflecting surface of the rotational polygon mirror in the direction corresponding to the main-scanning direction.

A keyboard apparatus includes a key supported for pivoting movement about a pivot point, a mass member for imparting a reaction force to performance operation of the key in interlocked relation to the key, a transmission member provided in abutment with both of the key and mass member to transmit a load from one of the key and mass member to the other, and an electromagnetic actuator for driving, via a fixed coil, the transmission member toward at least one of the key or mass member. Good key touch feeling can be achieved not only by a load applied from the mass member to the key but also through load control by the actuator. Thus, it is possible to faithfully reproduce a key touch feeling approximate to that in a natural keyboard instrument, such as an acoustic piano, with a simple construction and facilitated control.

A surface-emitting laser array includes a plurality of light emitting parts arranged in a two-dimensional formation having two orthogonal directions. When the plurality of light emitting parts are orthogonally projected on a virtual line parallel to one of the two orthogonal directions, a spacing between two of the plurality of light emitting parts along the virtual line is equal to an integral multiple of a predetermined value. The plurality of light emitting parts include a first light emitting part, a second light emitting part adjacent to the first light emitting part, and a third light emitting part adjacent to the second light emitting part, and a spacing between the first and second light emitting parts differs from a spacing between the second and third light emitting parts.
